The CHA has one more season left to go, they are waiting word from the NCAA if they are going to get another Auto Bid. I was under the impressiong that UNO and BSU had to wait till 2011-2112 before they were admitted into the WCHA. I was under the impression that the two remainging CHA teams without leagues would have be indies for a year. Maybe it's part of the negoiations?

It comes back to an old statement if you want work on the farm you go to NDSU, if you want to own the farm you go to UND.

Souns like a Bar I am going to have to close down next year at the final five. I love those Irish Bars in St Paul. Nothing beats a glass of Ginness Beer.

Um yeah you can put me in the category of hating ANY basketball. I am not a bleeding heart anything either. Hate NDSU, ha, ha, ha... I don't remember signing a piece of paper when I moved to ND that I had to like NDSU. Do we really want to go down that road again?

Tell that to McGovern's and Tom Reeds, because they were hopping the whole weekend.

I am all for it.

Lets say a gentleman's bet that the venue doesn't move. Like Siouxweet said; "agreed, if it ain't broke don't fix it." Heck I can see the Gopher rule staying as well because they are such a money maker.

I personally don't see the league office changing the venue of the success it has had. Even in a financial down turn the xcel energy center was full of hockey fans. Every bar and hotel was filled. Not saying I wouldn't travel to Omaha, because I probably would even thought it's a little further, but the WCHA has been very successful in St Paul.

I wouldn't wish an addiction on any one and that anyone suffering from addiction are able to recover. I have been told by people that fight addiction that it is a daily fight. I only hope Dubay can get it together and beat this thing.

The tourney isn't going to be moved to Omaha there is a sweet deal with the XCEL Energy Center and FSN. If the Tourney was/were to be moved it would be in Colorado or Wisconsin.

Really! It's your point of advanced or maintained in a debate or argument that UNO loses nothing buy staying in the WCHA. First off UNO is in the CCHA and they are moving to the WCHA and as many have already pointed out it's almost a forgone conclusion, they are working out the final details. The actual application really is nothing more than a side show. While the two parties are in the negoation period they are dancing around and making all the right statements not to burn bridges, but come one you cant' see the messages in these statements? Moose Richards interviewed the league commish during a recent golf tourney in Bemidji, listen to what McLeod has to say. I guess you one of the only ones that can't see what is going on. The league schools told McLeod to be more proactive in finding a 12th team. Don't just assume that UNO was courted and didn't contact the WCHA.

Yeah its almost like he has been reading a certain fan blog from up north.

You can keep living in a fog if you would like.

Oh boy, how hard is it to distribute tickets with out flubbing everything up? I bet we could get a group of students to do a better job.

Yeah on the extra three dollars a month I decided to decline it. They don't have the talk channels I listen to on line. I am not paying money to listen to Howard Stern either. But you're right I like XM radio it's way better than Commerical.

I guess you're right.

And July, August and September.

How is it that the University can screw up the students ticket distribution more and more every year. It's like it is a contest to out do the last season.

I was wondering if there were going to be anymore changes, to the XM dial?

I talked to him at the Final Five and he looked ok.

I thought Dunn has looked pretty good when I saw him play and that he is big goalie that was pretty decent on his angles. I didn't see a lot of flaws in his game.

Which would make this team very dangerous because the opposition doesn't know which line to check. More of the same this season. Other teams have one or two meat and potatoes lines and they are easier to shut down.

This could get interesting in the offseason.

Holy Cow, if UBC gets into the mix that could really upset the apple cart. Then you start talking UAF, UAA, UBC and the western most schools. But that debate is for another day.
